About Sweet Sock

Sweet Sock is a fabulous fingering weight blend of superwash merino and nylon from Twisted Ambition Yarns. Strong enough to knit a show-stopping pair of socks yet soft enough to fill your heart with joy, Ross Taylor's stunning hand-dyed palette is sure to inspire you to create something beautiful.

All yarn is sourced from mills in South America, where mulesing is not practised.

About Twisted Ambitions

Twisted Ambitions Yarn is a vibrant, expressive hand‑dyed yarn brand born from the creative vision of Ross Taylor, supported by Steve Taylor, and rooted in a passion for colour and community. What started as a garage dye studio in Oklahoma has evolved into a joyful small‑batch yarn business that sees colour as emotional storytelling and a source of inspiration for makers everywhere.

Every skein is hand‑dyed with care, intention, and artistic flair, resulting in bold, fun, and personality‑filled fibres that reflect the brand’s belief that yarn should be as lively and unique as the people who use it. Twisted Ambitions Yarn is built on values of ethical sourcing, sustainable packaging, and human‑made craftsmanship, and embraces inclusivity, creativity, and giving back through community connection, collaborations, and charity initiatives.

Twisted Ambitions remains committed to hands‑on dyeing, supportive engagement with the fibre community, and creating exceptional yarns that makers truly love.

Why you'll love Hand Dyed Yarn

Hand dyed yarn is extra special because every skein is one of a kind. There are no batches and no perfectly matched skeins. This is where you can see the artistic point of view of each dye house we work with. Some dyers are quite exact in their repeatable colours while others are quite artistic and splashy, valuing the creation of each skein rather than the closeness of the colourway.

We take great care to photograph our products accurately, and still the unique skeins in your order may look different to the photograph, and they may even look different to each other. If you are using hand dyed yarns and are concerned with dramatic colour changes, when changing from one skein to the next, alternate rows to blend in the new skein.

Care Instructions

Items made from this superwash wool/nylon blend should be washed by hand in cold or lukewarm water with a gentle rinse-free detergent. Wash gently but never wring or twist when washing.
Gently squeeze as much water as possible, roll in a towel and press moisture out. Then lay finished piece flat to dry, blocking to shape.

We recommend washing even superwash wool by hand, as it will extend the life of your precious hand made items!

Benefits of this Yarn
